Balconies/Balustrades Glass barriers are used in buildings for a number of purposes and allow the maximum flow of light and view both inside and outside the structure. The four main areas that glass is used are: in external windows to prevent people falling out of a building, on balconies and terraces either inside or out, around stairs and lifts,

Physical barriers should be provided where it is necessary, for safety reasons, to guard the edges of any floor including windows, galleries, balconies, skylights and other openings to which people have access, such as basement areas and any sunken area next to a building.

Correctly specified and installed, glass is ideal for use inside the home in a wide range of areas including doors, partitions, balconies, and balustrades. Ensure that you have taken advice on the type of glass to use in each application.

The resulting product is free from inherent darkening conventionally associated with laminated glass incorporating the thicker clear float glass used for enhanced safety and security, making Pilkington Optiwhite™ the ideal alternative solution for glass partitions, glass doors, glass stairs, balustrades and balconies.
